So I have 5 kitties that I have tried to transition to raw in the past but had no success. I have 4 of them on canned food, 1 is a kibble addict and I don't know if she could eat raw as she has Cerebral Hypoplasia and bobs a lot (kind of like a pecking chicken) when she eats. I haven't been able to transition her to canned, I don't think she likes bobbing in the wetness of the food. I do know my siamese boy cannot tolerate any raw beef, when I divy up ground beef, I sometimes drop tid bits for the kitties and if he gets even the tiniest piece about 30 min to an hour later he pukes. I do think I have one that will transition now, whereas before she wouldn't, as I drop tidbits when I'm preparing my dogs raw (she's been on raw for 3 years) and Cedes goes absolutely nuts for it, screaming and pawing the cupboards for more. I know one question my hubby has is will it be cheaper to feed raw than canned food? I know my chihuahua is more expensive to feed raw as a 4# bag of food for $20 would last her 6 months. What about bones? Will they readily eat them? Do you feed ground bones or just give them whole? I feed my chihuahua cornish hens for her boney pieces (she's only 4#) and can't eat chicken legs or wings. Do you do whole prey? I have access to dead mice. Are cats the same in their needs of about 2% of their body weight? Any special considerations for a Geriatric cat (14 years old)?
